i am not familiar with the git svn codebase, so i am not sure, whether
it is feasible to implement a compression of the unhandled.log files,
but it would definitely save me quite a lot of hd space ...
On that note, Eric, what does the unhandled.log file do in the first
place? It's name would suggest it lists all revisions that aren't
handled yet, but the contents of the file seem to only grow over time,
what gives?
according to the man page, it logs unhandled svn properties
Yup, it logs things that git-svn currently cannot handle.  It's meant to
be machine parseable so other tools[1] can process them after-the-fact.
I would accept a patch for a command like "git svn gc" to deal with
compressing them.

[1] - as far as I know there are none
